Hebei Women's Forced Labour Camp cruelly persecutes Falun Gong practitioners. Liu Ziwei, head of Team 1, often viciously beats practitioners. She also asks the guards to help her persecute practitioners.

Ms. Zhang Yancun is a Falun Gong practitioner. On September 19th, 2008, Liu Ziwei forced Ms. Zhang to have her hair cut. When she resisted, Liu Ziwei, along with guards Liu Yali and Liu, took off Ms. Zhang clothes and shocked her with electric batons for 40 minutes until her face turned pale and her body was trembling. Hiding their criminal deeds, Liu Ziwei and her associates confined her in a separate cell and handcuffed her to the radiator, forcing her to sit in the same position for 48 hours. She had to eat and relieve herself in that small cell.

The second day, Liu Ziwei forced Ms. Zhang to wear the camp uniform. After her order was ignored, Liu Ziwei began punching Ms. Zhang's face, which was already seriously swollen, until she was exhausted. Ms. Zhang's face was deformed from the abuse. She couldn't even open her eyes because they were so swollen that only a slit was visible. Her face and mouth were also swollen. Even the inmates who were very familiar with her couldn't recognize her.

Moreover, Liu Ziwei instructed the drug addicts Zhu Liying and Liu Juan to strip all of Zhang Yanchun's clothes off to beat and sexually abuse her. They not only tore the hair out of her head, but also tore out her pubic hair.

On one occasion, Liu Ziwei used a sharp metal object similar to a woman's comb to puncture Zhang Yanchun's arms, causing her body to have numerous small holes on top of scars she already had from the electric baton shocks. The wounds oozed blood that even a roll of toilet paper couldn't stop. All of this happened because she would not give up her belief in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.
